Abstract
In the past, systems have been built where object detection for target tracking was based on a simple evaluation of the intensity values of the object and its environment. After preprocessing of the sensor signals the maximum intensity level or other similar features like centre of gravity are used to detect the position of a selected object. Those systems only work successfully if a high contrast between object and background is given. Objects on the ground are often lost especially in the European landscape.
